Public bug reported: SRU Justification
Impact: The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally backported form of that patch. The v3.5.7.32 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well. git://git.kernel.org/ TEST CASE: TBD The following patches are in the v3.5.7.32 stable release: Linux 3.5.7.32 powerpc/crashdump : Fix page frame number check in copy_oldmem_page kvm: x86: fix emulator buffer overflow (CVE-2014-0049) perf: Fix hotplug splat perf/x86: Fix event scheduling ASoC: sta32x: Fix wrong enum for limiter2 release rate usb: ehci: fix deadlock when threadirqs option is used USB: ftdi_sio: add Cressi Leonardo PID ACPI / processor: Rework processor throttling with work_on_cpu() dm mpath: fix stalls when handling invalid ioctls ipc,mqueue: remove limits for the amount of system-wide queues i7300_edac: Fix device reference count i7core_edac: Fix PCI device reference count ASoC: wm8958-dsp: Fix firmware block loading qla2xxx: Fix kernel panic on selective retransmission request quota: Fix race between dqput() and dquot_scan_active() SELinux: bigendian problems with filename trans rules ASoC: wm8770: Fix wrong number of enum items ASoC: sta32x: Fix array access overflow dma: ste_dma40: don't dereference free:d descriptor e100: Fix "disabling already-disabled device" warning KVM: VMX: fix use after free of vmx->loaded_vmcs KVM: MMU: handle invalid root_hpa at __direct_map Input: elantech - improve clickpad detection fs/proc/proc_devtree.c: remove empty /proc/device-tree when no openfirmware exists. net: asix: add missing flag to struct driver_info net: asix: handle packets crossing URB boundaries net: ip, ipv6: handle gso skbs in forwarding path net: add and use skb_gso_transport_seglen() net: sctp: fix sctp_connectx abi for ia32 emulation/compat mode usbnet: remove generic hard_header_len check bonding: 802.3ad: make aggregator_identifier bond-private tg3: Fix deadlock in tg3_change_mtu() net: fix 'ip rule' iif/oif device rename perf tools: Fix cache event name generation perf tools: Remove extraneous newline when parsing hardware cache events ACPI / video: Filter the _BCL table for duplicate brightness values cpufreq: powernow-k8: Initialize per-cpu data-structures properly hwmon: (max1668) Fix writing the minimum temperature cgroup: update cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists() to grab siglock workqueue: ensure @task is valid across kthread_stop() USB: serial: option: blacklist interface 4 for Cinterion PHS8 and PXS8 ahci: disable NCQ on Samsung pci-e SSDs on macbooks ARM: 7957/1: add DSB after icache flush in __flush_icache_all() avr32: Makefile: add '-D__linux__' flag for gcc-4.4.7 use avr32: fix missing module.h causing build failure in mimc200/fram.c ALSA: usb-audio: work around KEF X300A firmware bug ext4: don't leave i_crtime.tv_sec uninitialized ext4: fix online resize with a non-standard blocks per group setting cifs: ensure that uncached writes handle unmapped areas correctly PCI: Enable INTx if BIOS left them disabled rtl8187: fix regression on MIPS without coherent DMA rtlwifi: Fix incorrect return from rtl_ps_enable_nic() rtlwifi: rtl8192ce: Fix too long disable of IRQs drm/i915/dp: add native aux defer retry limit drm/i915/dp: increase native aux defer retry timeout ext4: don't try to modify s_flags if the the file system is read-only SUNRPC: Fix races in xs_nospace() x86: dma-mapping: fix GFP_ATOMIC macro usage ARM: 7953/1: mm: ensure TLB invalidation is complete before enabling MMU sata_sil: apply MOD15WRITE quirk to TOSHIBA MK2561GSYN ata: enable quirk from jmicron JMB350 for JMB394 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Description changed: + SRU Justification - SRU Justification + Impact: + The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar + in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to + demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream + by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally + backported form of that patch.
